Altap Salamander 2.5 PE Viewer Buffer Overflow
This module exploits a buffer overflow in Altap Salamander <= v2.5. By creating a malicious file and convincing a user to view the file with the Portable Executable Viewer plugin within a vulnerable version of Salamander, the PDB file string is copied onto the stack and the SEH can be overwritten.
